    Notes: summary Titanium (Ti) is a relatively new metal in prosthodontics. As a possible material for removable partial dentures (RPDs), it was used in its pure form to make 10 RPDs which were compared with 10 identical cobalt-chromium (Co–Cr) alloy RPDs in a clinical trial. The dentures were used alternately for four weeks, the subjects were asked to answer a questionnaire and then the Co–Cr dentures were withdrawn. The Ti dentures were then followed up for 2 years and another standardized questionnaire administered. A survival rate of rests and retainers of 91% was recorded and the dentures were found to be more comfortable (55%) and preferred (64%) than the Co–Cr dentures. Factors to increase the success rates are discussed.

    Titanium for removable partial dentures (III): 2-year clinical follow-up in an undergraduate programme (2000)

    Notes: This study examined the success of titanium (Ti) removable partial dentures (RPDs) compared with that of cobalt–chromium (Co–Cr) RPDs using a randomized controlled clinical trial. Thirty-eight RPD patients were provided with either Co–Cr (20 patients) or Ti (18 patients) RPDs. The total numbers of dentures was 31 (13 maxillary, 18 mandibular) for Co–Cr and 23 (11 maxillary, 12 mandibular) for Ti. Patients were reviewed for 24 months following denture issue. After the initial 12 months, 20 clinical problems were recorded and became the criteria for subsequent assessment. Incidence of failure was analysed using both Fisher's exact test and the chi square test at a significance level of P〈0·05. Fracture of retainers in both metals occurred only in the first 12 months. Some failure types presented at significantly higher levels in the first 12 months but there were no significant differences between the two in all the criteria examined between the 12- and the 24-month reviews. Although differences existed in failure types between Co–Cr and Ti RPDs during the early review stages, the overall success rate of Ti RPDs was comparable with that of Co–Cr RPDs after 24 months. The higher incidence of failures in Ti RPDs prior to the 12-month review suggests the importance of taking its lower rigidity into account when designing RPDs.

    Notes: Summary A case involving a 67 year old man with an immunocytoma initially presenting as Waldenström's macroglobulinemia which transformed into a high grade malignant lymphoma of immunoblastic type after treatment with cyclophosphamide and corticosteroids over 5 months is presented. IgM (kappa) present in the serum in the phase of immunocytoma was demonstrated also on the less differentiated cells of the high grade lymphoma. The permanent production of the same immunoglobuline molecule suggests that both morphologically different malignancies derived from one B cell clone.
